KUKA Robotic Arm Case Study:
Reduces failures by 70% at 300Hz compared to Adhesive PET Material High Temperature Tape.
Mechanism: 0.15mm thickness and acrylic adhesive absorb kinetic energy, preventing resonance.
Frequency Range:
Effective from 50Hz to 500Hz, aligning with common robotic joint frequencies.
Outperforms PET Tape, which loses damping efficiency above 200Hz due to rigidity.
Continuous Use: Maintains adhesion at 260°C for 30 minutes, critical for welding and casting robots.
Thermal Expansion: 15% dimensional change at 200°C vs. PET Tape’s 20%, minimizing alignment shifts.
Fire Retardancy: UL 94 V - 0 rating prevents flame spread in electrical enclosures.
